Mende: inauguration of new facilities at the Faculty of Education
On May 7, the Faculty of Education at the University of Montpellier marked a significant milestone in its history with the inauguration of new facilities at the Mende site. These major works represented an investment of €1,115,230, entirely financed by the Lozère Departmental Council with support from the French government.
Improved accessibility for people with reduced mobility with the installation of an elevator, increased capacity in certain training rooms, harmonization of student residence facilities, and fire safety upgrades to an interior staircase... These are just some of the improvements now available to students, staff, and faculty at the Faculty of Education in Mende. These major works, financed by the Lozère Departmental Council with support from the State, required an investment of more than €1.1 million.
Promoting personal growth
Inaugurated in the presence of Philippe Augé, President of the University of Montpellier; Philippe Castanet, Prefect of Lozère; Sophie Pantel, President of the Lozère Departmental Council; Agnès Perrin-Doucey, Director of the Faculty of Education; and Stéphane Amouroux, Deputy Director and Head of the Mende site, this event marks the development of an ambitious project that will continue with the creation of a large-capacity room to house a learning laboratory in the near future.
Equipment necessary to meet various training needs, such as innovative teaching methods, digital technology, and music/body and voice instruction. Students residing in the Faculty will also benefit from additional space comprising five single rooms, one of which is adapted for people with reduced mobility, as well as eight double rooms. This will encourage everyone to flourish in an environment conducive to creating a dynamic student life.
